摘要: Photoelectrochemical (PEC) water vapor splitting by using n‐type semiconductor electrodes with a proton exchange membrane (PEM) enabled pure hydrogen production from humidity in ambient air. We proved a design concept that the gas–electrolyte–semiconductor triple‐phase boundary on a nanostructured photoanode is important for the photoinduced gas‐phase reaction. A surface coating of solid‐polymer electrolyte on a macroporous titania‐nanotube array (TNTA) electrode markedly enhanced the incident photon‐to‐current …
